After over five years and several transatlantic crossings this sleeve works great!

I use it to protect my laptop while transporting it to and from home to work (onboard ship) and when traveling abroad. It's prevented scratches and has kept my laptop safe and clean even though some of the environments I go to aren't too hospitable to electronics.

I also use a Case Logic zipper briefcase to provided extreme protection in conjunction with this sleeve and the combo can't be beat.

Most people don't need such extreme protection but if they do then it's available at an affordable price.
